Can any English people tell me how you rate "A Very British Gangster"?
I thought it was an excellent documentary. But I know nothing about Britain and can't rate it on accuracy or anything. Are the Noonans very powerful in Manchester? Or very rich? They didn't appear to have too much money.
Fake gangsters, nothing more.
Dessie at one time did really hold some weight around. But that was before he turned to crack and became a brainless alcoholic. And even in his heydays his power came mostly from the fact that he worked the doors and was one of the only ones able to keep the black street dealers in line. Dominic and his crew look like a bunch of clowns, act like a bunch of clowns and most likely are a bunch of clowns.
There're bigger ones around in Salford and Stockport.
